Eastlick and Other Stories by Shannon Page
I opened my mailbox yesterday for the first time since I returned from the rain forest to discover that I'd received a copy of Eastlick and Other Stories by Shannon Page (our own calendula-witch), including an introduction by yours truly, cover art by markferrari, and collaborations with said Mr. Ferrari, our own jaylake and Chaz Brenchley. It's a terrific collection and I recommend it.
Honestly, I was gobsmacked when Shannon asked me to write the introduction. I'm still a little confused by it; I was (and still am) convinced that there are others who could bring far more to the project than myself. She was determined, however, and so I decided to accept the honor and did the best I could. Her stories are worth my best effort, and I was delighted to do it.
Now you should go read it. Really.
